KUALA LUMPUR: Indah Water Konsortium (IWK) used high-powered sewer jetters on the fourth day of the search and rescue operation (SAR) yesterday to find the Indian tourist who was swallowed up by a sinkhole along Jalan Masjid India here on Friday.
The jetters were used to break up rock debris at about 4m down the manhole in front of Wisma Yakin nearby to allow the SAR team to see if there were any foreign objects stuck among the debris.
IWK also conducted flushing at all the manholes along the sewer line and monitored its Pantai Dalam treatment plant, but was unable to find any new leads.
Meanwhile, the four family members of the victim, Vjayaletchumy, 48, had their visas extended by the immigration department yesterday.
This was said by an aide to deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, who met with them at the location of the sinkhole and presented some aid to them.
